It’s been almost a month since my last update and yet when I look back, so little has happened that it’s almost sad. It appears that work has unfortunately dominated my life since coming back from LA. I even missed all-you-can-eat lobster at the annual MD-PhD retreat, which as many of you know, is not very characteristic of me. I did, however, get to pig out at two of my closest friends’ birthdays. Last Tuesday, a bunch of us drove out to this sushi buffet in Natick called Minado to celebrate Leo’s birthday. The place charges about $16 for lunch and $25 for dinner, which is very reasonable for all the sushi you can possibly stuff into your stomach, not to mention shrimps, crab legs, mussels, scallops, and even an udon bar and hibachi grill. This evening, we treated my roommate Jeff out to some hearty Chinese seafood at none other but our beloved dining locale East Ocean City, where we consumed almost every kind of meat they had (lobster, shrimp, fish, chicken, duck, and pork) and feasted to our hearts’ content. You know, looking back, I wonder how many of my posts are dedicated to my dining experiences. Well, what can I say? So much food… and so little time… Must eat it all before it’s gone! Btw, based on a friend’s suggestion, I’ve changed my guestbook into a forum. It’s really the same thing, but a guestbook implies a one-time comment on the website, while the forum allows people to comment on my updates as well as other visitors’ postings. I wonder if this will make things a bit more interesting…
